November 13th blog

     Yesterday we talked about the market revolution and the slave economy of the south. The market revolution was the creation of different machines and the factories that the machines work in. With the building of the factories, the production of goods were increasingly growing and more things were becoming more available to the general public.

     The Market Revolution was a major change of manual labor in the United States. It changed with the creation of factories and with easier labor in the factories and in the field.

I believe that the creation of the factories is a great thing because it helped creating more goods for the United States and the rest of the world.

"At the 11th hour on the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918, the Great War ends......." (History.com-this day in history) on November 11th, today exactly 105 years ago, the Great World War ended. The Great World War, also called WWI, was fought between Germany and the allied forces. The countries that were involved were Germany, Russia, Austria-Hungary, France, and Great Britain.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WWI made the path for WWII to start because Germany wanted to gain power and they were taking all of the Jewish civilians and putting them in concentration camps. The United States was not apart of WWII un the Japanese set the invasion and bombing of Pearl Harbor in Hawaii.

    The second amendment says that every citizen of the United States has the right to bear arms. I believe that this is true because the citizens should be able to protect themselves that and others. There are laws as says that average Americans cannot have any type of firearm at all. I believe that the public should have the right to have what ever the government has at its military disposal.
